Around the world, researchers are working extremely hard to develop new treatments and interventions for COVID-19 with new clinical trials opening nearly every day. This directory provides you with information, including enrollment detail, about these trials. In some cases, researchers are able to offer expanded access (sometimes called compassionate use) to an investigational drug when a patient cannot participate in a clinical trial.
The information provided here is drawn from ClinicalTrials.gov. If you do not find a satisfactory expanded access program here, please search in our COVID Company Directory. Some companies consider expanded access requests for single patients, even if they do not show an active expanded access listing in this database. Please contact the company directly to explore the possibility of expanded access.
Emergency INDs
To learn how to apply for expanded access, please visit our Guides designed to walk healthcare providers, patients and/or caregivers through the process of applying for expanded access. Please note that given the situation with COVID-19 and the need to move as fast as possible, many physicians are requesting expanded access for emergency use. In these cases, FDA will authorize treatment by telephone and treatment can start immediately. For more details, consult FDA guidance. Emergency IND is the common route that patients are receiving convalescent plasma.
Search Tips
To search this directory, simply type a drug name, condition, company name, location, or other term of your choice into the search bar and click SEARCH. For broadest results, type the terms without quotation marks; to narrow your search to an exact match, put your terms in quotation marks (e.g., “acute respiratory distress syndrome” or “ARDS”). You may opt to further streamline your search by using the Status of the study and Intervention Type options. Simply click one or more of those boxes to refine your search.

The primary objectives of this pilot study protocol are to assess safety and feasibility of using the geko™ device in COVID-19. Regarding safety to patients, we will measure the rate of adverse events, primarily local site irritation or discomfort. Feasibility will be measured on the basis of recruitment; ability to enroll sufficient number of patients meeting criteria. Protocol adherence will be observed as the ability to deliver the study intervention to the patients randomized to the treatment arm within the prescribed timeline and ability to complete the course of treatment. Additionally, we plan to measure patient outcomes such as ICU admission and death. The findings of this study have the potential to decrease the complications seen in COVID-19 infections.

This is a phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled, observer-blinded study of the safety and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine (BNT162b2) in Chinese healthy population. After randomization, the trial for each participant will last for approximately 13 months. Screening period is 2 weeks prior to randomization (Day -14 to Day 0), and two doses of either SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (BNT162b2) or placebo will be given intramuscularly (IM) separated by 21 days.

A Phase III Clinical Trial to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of ZF2001 for Prevention of COVID-19
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled international multicenter clinical trial design will be adopted. A total of 29,000 subjects aged 18 years and above are planned to be recruited, including 750 subjects aged 18-59 years and 250 subjects aged 60 years and above in China; 21,000 subjects aged 18-59 years and 7,000 subjects aged 60 years and above will be recruited outside China. Safety and immunogenicity will be evaluated among the Chinese subjects, and efficacy, immunogenicity and safety will be evaluated among the subjects outside China. Among them, 750 subjects aged 18-59 and 250 subjects aged 60 and above from outside China and all subjects from China will be selected as the immunogenicity subgroup for immunogenicity bridging study. The IgG levels of SARS-COV-2 neutralizing antibody and RBD protein binding antibody will be detected by blood sampling before vaccination, 14 days and 6 months after full course of vaccination to evaluate the immunogenicity and immune persistence.

This is a substudy of NCT04333732. The goal of this sub-study is to identify and characterize biomarkers of trained immunity by measuring, in vitro, immune responses to heterologous products, especially viral associated products, in the MMR vaccinated compared placebo groups. All participants are randomly assigned to MMR or placebo injection at baseline, followed by SARS-CoV-2 specific vaccination. Blood is drawn around 60 to 90 days after the last SARS-CoV-2 specific vaccine injection.

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was first isolated in Wuhan, China in December 2019. It is rapidly spreading worldwide, posing a severe threat to global health. Many therapeutics have been investigated for the treatment of this disease with inconclusive outcomes. Anakinra - an interleukin (IL)-1 receptor antagonist - had showed survival benefits in patients with macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) and sepsis and was investigated for the use in COVID-19 infection with promising outcomes.

Listening to breath sounds with the stethoscope/auscultation is used by pulmonary physicians in conjunction with pulmonary function, signs and symptoms, oxygen saturation and diagnostic testing to admit, follow and discharge patients from hospital. Of these, only auscultation routinely ceases upon discharge from Hospital. Healthcare utilization statistics have shown that for more than a decade, readmission after discharge for an exacerbation of COPD or severe asthma (or chronic heart failure) remains a major problem. The Strados System has been designed to extend the range of lung sound recording both geographically and temporally to improve the standard of care when access to continuous monitoring has been replaced by periodic or no monitoring. The primary purpose of this study is to assess the clinical utility of the Strados System in enabling periodic recording and reviewing of breath sounds in patients with chronic respiratory diseases, either in the ICU, or in less continuously monitored settings, including after inpatient discharge.
Centre Hospitalier de Cayenne
Multicenter observational study of diagnostic test validation (Research Involving the Human Person, type 3) In addition to the diagnosis by the reference method (nasopharyngeal swab), the patient will be asked to provide a saliva sample via a salivary spit. The clinical circumstances of the diagnosis, the age of the patient, the associated terrain (diabetes, immunodepression, pregnancy) will be noted. The nasopharyngeal and saliva samples will be analyzed in Cayenne and the remaining samples will be frozen and stored at the CRB before being sent to the University Hospital of Caen for analysis and concordance verification. The expected benefits are: Possibility of repeating tests in the same person more easily due to the absence of pain and thus reduce the barriers to diagnosis and screening. Possibility of self-sampling, which could simply be sent to the laboratory, which would relieve the diagnostic sites that mobilize staff and require a fairly heavy organization. Avoid long waiting lines that can be an obstacle and lead to a renunciation of the diagnosis.

People affected by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) by COVID-19 virus my require a long lasting invasive mechanical ventilation life support. To prevent damages to the lungs a number of protective lung ventilation measures are taken, one of them encounters the positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration. Up to date, it is unclear the best method to titrate PEEP considering this unconventional syndrome compared to other etiologies. In addition to the long lasting advanced life support and bedridden condition, other factors may affect respiratory and peripheral muscle function of these patients. Therefore, the investigators intend to follow up these patients randomized to one of the three-arm experimental PEEP titration and after ICU discharge their status on clinical, laboratory and physical functions assessments.
